Dev Track: Ruby Meets Clojure Flavored Database - Yoko Harada

47:34with Yoko Harada

Datomic is a new database categorized as NewSQL and was created by Rich Hickey. Everybody knows this big name and thinks of Clojure. It is true that Datomic fits well to Clojure programming, however, it is not only for Clojure people and Rubyists can use it too with the Diametric gem (https://github.com/relevance/diametric). Using Diametric, we can dive into Datomic from Ruby, from Rails.
This talk will introduce Diametric gem and how to use it as well as why its API design is good for us. Also, it will cover how Ruby helped to integrate Datomic API in Diametric gem.
